AGARTALA, Oct 29 (TIWN): TMC today in a press meet said that TMC sought appointment to meet with Tripura Governor, but Governor refused to meet with TMC leaders citing health issues.

In the Press meet TMC former MP Kunal Ghosh said, “Earlier when TMC leaders were attacked in Tripura, TMC sought Governor’s appointment which was also rejected. On one side Political violence is going on and on the other side in the name of religion, communal violence has been occurring since past few days. To raise this issue we sought appointment of Tripura Governor but it was also rejected citing health issues”.

"Attacks have been going on............sometimes political attacks or sometimes miscreants in the name of religion trying to divide among communities but Police, administration playing roles like slaves", he added.

Kunal Ghosh in the Press meet condemned the role of Governor and asked, “Is BJP setting their agent in ‘Raj Bhawan’? Police, administration and Governor have to play an active role and give time to the opposition parties". 

In today’s press meet 196 voters from 47 families joined TMC quitting other parties.
